3. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
DEPARTURE, pleading. Said to be when a party quits or departs from the case,
or defence, which he has first made, and has recourse to another; it is when
his replication or rejoinder contains matter not pursuant to the
declaration, or plea, and which does not support and fortify it. Co. Litt.
304, a; 2 Saund. 84, a, n. (1); 2 Wils. 98; 1 Chit. Pl. 619. The following
example will illustrate what is a departure: if to assumpsit, the defendant
plead infancy, and to a replication of necessaries, rejoin, duress, payment,
release, &c., the rejoinder is a departure, and a good cause of demurrer,
because the defendant quits or departs from the case or defence which he
first made, though either of these matters, newly pleaded, would have been a
good bar, if first pleaded as such.
2. A departure in pleading is never allowed, for the record would, by
such means, be spun out into endless prolixity; for he who has departed from
and relinquished his first plea, might resort to a second, third, fourth, or
even fortieth defence; pleading would, by such means, become infinite. He
who had a bad cause, would never be brought to issue, and he who had a good
one, would never obtain the end of his suit. Summary on Pleading, 92; 2
Saund. 84, a. n. (l); 16 East, R. 39; 1 M. & S. 395 Coin. Dig. Pleader, F 7,
11; Bac. Abr. Pleas, L; Vin. Abr. Departure; 1 Archb. Civ. Pl. 247, 253; 1
Chit. Pl. 618.
3. A departure is cured by a verdict in favor of him who makes it, if
the matter pleaded by way of departure is a sufficient answer, in substance,
to what is before pleaded by the opposite party; that is, if it would have
been sufficient, if pleaded in the first instance. 2 Saund. 84 1 Lill. Ab.
444.

4. Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) |
DEPARTURE, maritime law. A deviation from the course of the voyage insured.
2. A departure is justifiable or not justifiable it is justifiable ill
consequence of the stress of weather, to make necessary repairs, to succor a
ship in distress, to avoid capture, of inability to navigate the ship,
mutiny of the crew, or other compulsion. 1 Bouv. Inst. n. 1189.
